Oh Peterson, what wont you do?

The thing that worries me above all else is that the media had already judged him guilty despite not having any evidence that is comparable to that of what the police has. It's all "this could be significant, this might be important"....etc

I frankly don't care if he's innocent or not; what I DO care about is the media acting irresponsibly as judge, jury, and perhaps executioner for anyone. Maybe he is an ****** weirdo...but what if he's innocent too? Would YOU want to be crucified in the eye of the public if you were a weirdo and innocent at the same time? I think not.

Just my opinion everyone, try not to get riled up about it.

Any of you other Illinoisians keep thinking you see him at Jewell? I saw him there and at Country Donuts, I swear. Damn him for looking like a Soush-Sider.

Kroger in Decatur, I swear he was in the housewares aisle lookin' at drain cleaners with a gallon of anti-freeze in his cart.


Seriously tho, the dude screams of a Douchie Award. But I think a lot of the attention comes from a few high profile Chicago area missing wife cases lately. I work in it, and yeah, the effin' media jumps on anything that moves, bleeds, or is missing...

IT is how he acts too. He has agreed to go on quasi news shows what...4 or 5 times? He wants this feeding frenzy.

Or the only news shows asking him to come on tv and 'tell his side' are the quasi news shows. He's probably not aware how this all makes him look.

It my experience that most people involved in a 'newsworthy' event who don't get professional help with image/media management simply have no idea how to handle themselves in the press.

There's a reason many people won't speak to the public except through a professional mouthpiece and it is completely legitmate: because once you've said something in public, you no longer control the message. If you misspeak or say something that can be taken out of context to hurt you, odds are good that you will get bit in the ass by your own mouth.
